Due to the change of their schedule, as soon as they returned to the village, Noel headed to Brad's house to talk about his choice.

Meanwhile, Anna went to the village chief's house since there was no inn in the village.

Before sleeping, Noel went to talk with Anna about his plan. He even brought the map with him, showing it to her.

"Let's see. There are a few places potentially holding the hostages. It'll be hard if they're using the hostages as their shields." Noel pointed at three large spaces according to the map.

"That's true. So, what should we do? Should we go with the intention to kill everyone, including the hostages? Although I'm sorry to say this, but they're mostly women. And after what the bandits have done to them, I don't know if they can still live normally again." Anna explained with a disappointed expression.

"First of all, we're going to capture the bandits outside the mine and interrogate them. After learning about the location as well as the number of the hostages, we shall go to ambush them. No, more like…" Noel paused for a moment and asked, "I am afraid I need you to do the hardest task."

"The hardest task?"

"A bait."

"So, you want me to storm inside alone?"

Noel nodded with a solemn face. Even Anna looked at him for a while to see how serious he was in proposing this idea.

Ultimately, Anna nodded. "Fine. I'll do it. But how much confident are you in this plan?"

"Eighty percent success rate. And I believe we can rescue the hostages with this plan."

"Alright. Let me hear the details."

Noel took an hour to explain his plan. It was quite surprising for Anna to know this elaborate plan. She finally understood the reason why she had always been tricked into his scheme in her previous life.

The next morning, Noel and Anna left the village. To her surprise, Brad also followed them, begging them to let him tag along.

Although it was true that Brad's bow mastery as a hunter was quite good, she never expected that Noel would ask the people to fight.

As soon as they reached the mine, they waited and continued observing them. Still, no matter how hard they tried, it would be impossible for them to calculate the enemy's exact number.
